Pulse Named Summit League Track and Field Performer of the Week

SIOUX FALLS, S.D.— South Dakota sophomore junior Jacy Pulse have been named the Summit League Track and Field Peak Performers of the Week for the period ended April 2.

Pulse, a native of Salem, South Dakota, clocked a personal best of 58.25 seconds in the 400-meter hurdles at the Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays. That time ranks second in USD program history, leads the Summit League and ranks 30th in the nation. She also posted a personal best for 200 meters, clocking 23.98 seconds at the Bobcat Invitational. That time moved her to seventh in USD program history.

Pulse was a member of the Coyotes’ winning 4×100-meter relay at the Bobcat Invitational, which clocked 45.05 for one tenth of a second off their school record from a week ago. Pulse garners the weekly Summit award for the first time this season and second time of her career. Her previous career honor came one year ago following the Texas Relays.

South Dakota is set to host the USD Early Bird this weekend, April 7-8, at the Lillibridge Track Complex in Vermillion.
